Colorblind Christianity

(album: Dark In The City - 2018)

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
You know God as the creator of colors
Except for when it come to me

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
I won't support that lie
I am His image-bearing masterpiece

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
I am His sacred creation
So your color lies got you claiming a colorless blasphemy

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
You make love seem like it's afraid of my color
And it shows in your attempt to love me passively

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
Because when injustice happens you say things like "Let's wait for all the facts,"
Instead of seeing it as a tragedy

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
I love my melanin and the way it radiates
Watch me glow magically

I don't want your colorblind Christianity
It's not for me, and it's not for you either
Let go of that lie so you can have freedom

Why would you want your colorblind Christianity?
